Women & Gender Studies — Certificate (16 credits)

About the Program

The Women and Gender Studies Certificate program offers an interdisciplinary field of study focused on the rich diversity of women’s experiences across time, cultures, and social/economic classes. In Women and Gender Studies courses, you will reexamine and reevaluate assumptions about the role of women and gender in society, uncovering their central role in the human experience. The program is a valuable addition to any academic field and provides a career advantage in many areas, the Women and Gender Studies Certificate is an excellent preparation for transferring to a major or minor in Women and Gender Studies at other institutions.

A maximum of two courses transferred from other institutions can be used to help fulfill the 16-credit Women and Gender Studies Certificate.
